We should concentrate on Missouri, Florida, Texas & Tennessee. I think we have a chance at all 4 states. We should also regain Arizona with Gallegos. We have a few vulnerable states like Montana, Nevada & Ohio. I hope we win enough of these states to have a clear majority.

Jaime, Thank you for writing. Though I had started to comprise my list, I trust that you have hit all the right notes. I would add, that while recently an insider to Tennessee politics said Gloria Johnson doesn’t have a shot at unseating Marsha Blackburn, I still plan to work tirelessly for Johnson.

Thank-you, Barbara Jo:

I like Gloria Johnson & I think she does have a chance to unseat the disreputable Marsha Blackburn. She was part of a popular backlash against the pro-gun authoritarian Republican establishment in Tennessee, which helps bring her the national profile & potential backing she'll need to wage a successful campaign against Blackburn. I think Tennesseeans, especially the younger generations, are ready for a radical change, & it's incumbent on us to take advantage of this sentiment & support Johnson.

The coming election has a chance to be a transformative one, so we should set our goals high in order to take advantage of it.

Jaime, While I only became aware of Johnson because of her connection to “The Tennessee Three,” I also am painfully aware that outside of Nashville, Knoxville, and Memphis, Tennessee, in the worst way possible, still is the Deep South. Nonetheless, both for personal and political reasons, and against all odds, I will, as previously stated, work tirelessly on her behalf.
